Vote for your WW

Feel free to post pictures, manips and your reasons for why your pick should be WW.

[cronosred]

None of those seem like the right choice for Wonder Woman so I'll keep hoping that they will find better choice.

I voted for MEW too. Not only do I love her, but I think she would really commit to the role. She obviously has no problem pretending to be a superhero (or villian)!

[buggs0268]

MEW all the way!!!!

[az824]

Where's Monica Dean's name? :)
thats what im wondering, out of those i choose you MEW!

[buggs0268]

What is weird is, in those pics above, she really does look like she could be the real life offspring of Bruce Willis and Bonnie Bedelia. She has a lot of features that both have and you could see, if they did have a kid, that is how she would look like.

[dnno1]

Here we go again.

[az824]

she looks so hot in that gray dress of hers

[04nbod]

no to MEW- she looks to meek to be WW

MEW. not the best choice, but the best choice from those rumoured. shes got the look more than any other girl on that list

and no megan gale. i dont want a wonder woman with a penis

[Steelsheen]

any idea what Winstead is doing now? if she has nothing lined up next year and that suddenly she has disappeared off the face of the earth it may be an indication of her involvement in this movie.

[crazy4mary]

There isn't ANYONE who looks and acts just like Wonder Woman in the REAL world (unfortunately:csad: ). I think MEW is the closest thing out there. This part deserves a good actress!! She can be tough if she' given the chance. If they cast her and the script is good, I won't care about the rest!

Same here. But of the choices on the poll, I'd say Megan Gale looks the most mature enough. And that Mary Winstead person looks more like a "Wonder girl". If the movie news/rumors are true, it sucks this will be a "young" Justice League. I'd rather see a JLA of men and women, not people who still look like they could pass as college/post-college kids. Oh well... moving along...:whatever:

So do you think Palmer got it? Are you going off of the same stupid rumor mill that had that guy from Hellboy as Superman? Palmer is not WW. Even her agent in that stupid adelaide times report said that there was no deal when they called them.

I think they need to find a lookalike to this. MEW doesn't quite cut it.

[shadowdog]

I don't think she's trashy or has a horse face. She has strong features, but I think that's ok for WW, and trashy? She will be wearing star spangled undies on screen....perhaps a little trashy is okay.

[Crazymaverick]

We don't know if that's the costume they're going to go with.

It could be a costume based on ancient Greek armour.

That really hurt:csad: . I thought you liked her but not for this part. Do you have an alternative suggestion that we can pass on to WB?? Thye are obviously listening... I don't think she's mediocre at all. She plays the part that's written. It's probably hard to make Disney or FD-3 Oscar-winning stuff. That's why she needs a role like this. I admit I am biased...

I do like her she seems like a nice person and she did an ok job in the two movies I've seen her in (Sky High,Final Desination 3) but that being said no where in those movies did I see someone who could portray Wonder Woman properly. MEW is not someone that would make me avoid seeing a movie because she is in it but she's also not a reason I would want to see a movie either.

i wouldnt be running up and handing Monica Dean an oscar either.

i wouldnt say that Winstead is a mediocre actress and end it with that, she hasnt gotten the right breaks neither has she been in a film that gave her a chance to really flex her acting muscles nor in a cast that would test her mettle (like that opportunity given to Katie Holmes) . just remember, most folks thought Charilize Theron was just a pretty face until she purposely "uglyfied" herself and went after an extremely difficult role.

You're right there have been many times when what sometimes appears to be unconventional casting has worked quite well. I do apologize to MEW and her fans I was being childish and immature and let my love for the character get the better of me, Mew is a good actress my only big worry with her is if she can pull off the warrior side of Wonder Woman, but if she is cast I will reserve judgement till I see her in it.

[Dr. Fate]

To be honest, I don't know who these women are except for Winstead, and she really doesn't look like Wonder Woman to me. None of them do.

[dark_b]

monica dean looks more mature then MEW: but monica dean will nto happen. so i take MEW.

[The Shredder]

Monica Dean's appearance is alot like that of Wonder Woman that is presented in the comic books.

And being a fan of a more mature look for WW, she would be my ideal. Acting wise, I havent seen a whole hell of alot of Dean. However, what I have seen was in no way horrid. No, actually I would venture to say she's a pretty decent actress from the limited amount of work I've seen. Unfortunately, we have seen names mentioned who have auditioned for the role, and Dean's name is not/has yet to be one of them.
So with that being said, I'll just settle on MEW. As she seems the best choice out of the bunch that has been mentioned. Which for me, isnt saying much. But that's just the way it goes.

Monica Dean is 5'7". If you want to compare her to the comics, she would be too short since the character is listed at 5'11" - 6'0". As far as facial looks (which is what I think you were really alluding to), there have been many interpretations of Wonder Woman's facial looks by different artists over the years so that is a push. I think the biggest show stopper is her age (28). As Robert Sanchez has said (http://www.iesb.net/index.php?option=com_fireboard&Itemid=170&func=view&id=2399&catid=20&limit=6&limitstart=18) in one of his post over at his website, she "could possibly play Wonder Woman, by the time the third film comes along she will be in her mid thirties, any chance of spin offs would put her close to 40". No don't get it twisted, something like this was done before with Halle Berry and X-Men and it worked, but she was considered an in-demand actress at the time and an exception must have been made. I can't say the same for Monica Dean.

[fu manchu]

from the list, Mary.


it would be interesting if Palicki won the role. there will be alot, "it should've been..."

[shadowdog]

No don't get it twisted, something like this was done before with Halle Berry and X-Men and it worked, but she was considered an in-demand actress at the time and an exception must have been made.


This brings up a good point. Whatever happened to the notion of shooting trilogies all at once?
LOTR did it and it worked (obviously), Back to The Future shot the last two parts at once, and that is considerd one of the great trilogies, even parts of the Matrix trilogy were filmed consecutively.
I think if the cast and crew is commited to the film/s, they should want them to be consistent and sharp. Filming sequels so far apart leads to loss of interest and unfotunate cast and crew changes, that for the most part hurt the overall effect of the films.
I hate when one movie comes out and then the sequel isn't started until 2 or sometimes even 3 years later.
I think it would make all three better films (if there are going to be three parts to the JL saga, which seems to be the trend), and would probably lead to bigger revenue and better reviews for everyone involved.

[Green Goblin 1964]

Mary Elizabeth Winstead, easily...




Who wouldn't want to see her in a WW costume?! I would...

[buggs0268]

This is ridiculous. So what are they supposed to cast a 15-year-old girl so that she'll be the right age in ten years? Christian Bale was 30 when he shot Batman Begins and he's 33 now when shooting the sequel and no one seems to mind. 30's is not too old. Women still look good in their 30's (it's the 40's when Hollywood starts to reject them), so if they cast a 28-year-old actress to be Wonder Woman, that's perfect--just old enough to look like a woman and not a teenager, but young enough to do sequels without getting too old.
They said they are specifically casting WW younger as she is supposed to look eternally young. That is why they are going for that age. Also, they want someone younger, as the poster you replied to stated, who will still look young after the third film. Who cares about Bale's age in BB. The fact is that in Hollywood, older women's careers don't last as long as younger women's, and that is also why they are casting younger. Box Office draw for the boys who will go to see a younger hot chick in the WW outfit instead of an older one. The WB has specifically stated that they were casting a younger actress for that reason, so there is no point in arguing over it.

Ok. Monica Dean is 5'7 (knew that, but thanks anyways). See, I've never been one that would automatically qualify, or disqualify a said actress' potential to be a good WW on height. Especially if we're talking about an actress who's 5'7 (and not 5'1). Which is a pretty decent/average height for a woman, and I have little doubt that an actress at that height could just prove to be a great Wonder Woman if given the opportunity.

As far as Wonder Woman's look goes. Well, we've seen many different interpretations of Diana's appearance in the DC comics thru the years. We've gone from the doe eyed look, to the more regal appearance, to even Lynda Carter-ish, and to yes, an appearance that looks alot like that of Jennifer Connelly (thanks Adam Hughes!). And back again. However, with the regal appearance being the one that is more often than not the version of Diana that is interpreted by the artists who have worked at DC Comics, as well the one we've presently been seeing in the 3rd volume of WW that was relaunched well over a year ago, Monica Dean definately works. And works very well. That much is certain.

Age wise? I dont have a problem with Dean being 28/29 at all. Actually, I'm all for that. As I think finally giving Bale something of a contemporary in the DC Film Universe would be great. Especially if we are talking potential spinoff films (provided JL is successful enough to warrant spinoffs). One has to remember that outside of Halle Berry, Famke Janssen was another that exactly a young 20-something year old actress when she landed the role of Jean Grey in 2000's X-Men movie (How the hell did that happen??). But fortunately when it was all said and done, Famke proved herself to be good in the part as the franchise went on (unlike Halle if you ask certain people), and if it was announced tomorrow that an X4 was going into production and that Famke was returning (hey it's Jean Grey) for yet another installment, I sincerely doubt we would hear many complaints. Despite Janssen being at the age (or even past the age) of geriatric in some of the more youth obsessed fanboy minds.

Guarenteed, you get the right actress for the part that is accepted by both the fans and the general public. They will love her forever. As it's something we've seen before, and no doubt will see again.

Do I believe Monica Dean would be able to achieve this?

It's certainly a possibilty.

But the point is, that the WB is going after a younger actress in a certain age range for a specific reason. They came out and said it. Even though WW is the oldest of all of them, she is supposed to have a very every youthful apearance in the movie dictated by the script. Therefore they are going for under 25, and that is why MEW is the lead candidate. She is young, closest to looking like WW, and she has a maturity well beyond her age in her performances. So it doesn't matter if you guys will accept an older actress, they aren't even testing them.

I'm very aware of the whole "youthful appearance/young hollywood" that the project is going for and all of that. Which is exactly why I've mentioned previously that I am willing to settle on MEW despite not being exactly crazy about it or the list of names that have been dropped that have indeed tested for the role.

But that's how WB wants it.
So that's the way it will have to be.

If that's how it is with WB, then I hope the film crashes and burns. I'm sorry buggs, but I can't stand these mousey, botoxed 20 something girls WB wants for the role of Wonder Woman. They just aren't convincing to me as the Amazon warrior Wonder Woman is supposed to be. None of them exude the power and grace that Wonder Woman is supposed to have. Forgive me buggs, but that's how I feel, and I shall not say anything more on the subject than that.

Forgive me buggs, but that's how I feel, and I shall not say anything more on the subject than that.
No problem with stating your opinion. I was just merely posting that arguing over an older actress being cast in the role is pointless as the script and the WB are going after actress in a certain age range for her. And the actress' they are arguing over aren't in those age ranges, and have not even been asked to test for the roles. There are people still arguing about Connely and the Italian actress. They aren't even in the age range and not being approached at all.

I really like Mary Elizabeth Winstead...but not for Wonder Woman (not yet anyway). I see her more fitting the role of Donna Troy. Out of the choices, my pick is Megan Gale, she is so HOT!! Teresa Palmer could play Cassie/Wonder Girl!!

I could envision Megan as the NEW face of Wonder Woman...

http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/6940/megancolorsqh9.jpg

She's got the right height 5' 11" for the character and is 32 yrs old!! She doesn't need to workout, she's got good 'athletic' size for Princess Diana. Can she act, not sure, but she should be given a chance to prove herself like anyone else.

http://img267.imageshack.us/img267/2070/megangaleds9.jpg

Here is a clip of her on Rove, an Aussie talk show. I like the way she presents herself.

hnB-FIPpKpo

Although an Aussie, she got her fame in Italy. She started out really late as a model (age 24). She has been described in an article as "Italy's hottest star since Sophia Loren". She played herself in the movie, "Vacanze di Natale" and received top billing. She was Viviana in "Stregata Dalla Luna" and spoke entirely in Italian. She also had a very very small part in "Stealth".

How much acting did Lynda Carter (or even Christopher Reeve) have before they became the icons to millions?

I could definitely see Megan Gale in the role!!!

Again, she is way to old for the age they are looking for, so you guys need to stop asking for her. They aren't casting anyone over 25 I believe. They specifically want a younger actress for the role.

[Venomfan]

can someone add "NO!!! MEW should play Mary Jane" to the poll?:oldrazz:

[phoenixflight]

Well, if they are in fact going for the 'younger JLA', then Mary Elizabeth Winstead would be great!!! Donna Troy as Wonder Woman!!!

[The Shredder]

Well, I think we both can agree that "they" are idiotic.
Oh, most definately!

But it's nothing new.

And not too surprising either. :o

[EagleVision]

Nadja Bjorlin I definitely agree--she's super-trashy, but Monica Dean? Wha!? She doesn't look like a pornstar at all. In fact, it's the opposite--she has a radiant, regal beauty to her that is ideal for Wonder Woman.

http://www.highlandmyst.com/livinganddying/setpics/jonarnmon.jpg

Shoot the WW aura is all over that woman. She's got it goin on in every category!

[Crazymaverick]

I don't know why people keep saying she doesn't have an intentionally sultry persona. Not that there's anything inherently wrong with that, but it's just wrong for WW.

In fact I'd pick the amazonian yet beautiful Megan Gale over her any day.

well of course she looks like a porn star! look at her clothes, any woman would look porn starish in those clothes, or lack thereof

[The Shredder]

I don't know why people keep saying she doesn't have an intentionally sultry persona. Not that there's anything inherently wrong with that, but it's just wrong for WW.

There's clearly a difference in having an intentionally sultry persona in everyday life, and having one in a photoshoot that calls for an intentionally sultry persona. She's intentionally being sexy in those pics.

THAT is what the whole point of the photoshoot!

Believe me, ALOT of actresses, great actresses infact, have done photoshoots and taken pics much akin those that you have posted with Monica. Doesnt mean they would be completely wrong for the role of WW.

[Crazymaverick]

Perhaps.

But being sexy is different from being trashy.

A couple of those pics are pretty tasteless. Like I said before, they're reminiscent of pornography.

But, besides even that, I know for a fact that MEW wouldn't bring that kind of baggage with her for the role.

Plus she's a more experienced actress.

[Crazymaverick]

Anyhoo, this is a good excuse to post another picture of her:

LOL, baggage? What baggage are we exactly talking about? Jessica Biel has done some pretty racy shots and it didn't prevent WB from contacting her for the WW role. I don't see how those shots can have any bearing on her being cast in the role. So now you expect WB to do full background checks and if the actress in question posed in a bikini or thong at one time than she can't be WW? I'm not quite following your requirements for the role of WW.

[Crazymaverick]

Read my post again.

I was talking about MEW in particular.

But while we're on the subject, I've never seen Jessica Biel point her vagina at the camera for one of those "sexy" photo-shoots you were talking about.

So it's not quite the same thing, when a "sexy" or "racy" photoshoot is done with a modicum of taste and when it's done without.

[birdgirl]

At least all the ones we're arguing about at this point are in the right ballpark. Neither MEW, Dean nor Gale are terrible choices. MEW is beautiful and a great actress, just a tad young. Dean is a little old (if you are considering this plus sequels, spinoffs, etc. - not in general), and when I saw her on Lost, seemed quite diminuitive in stature. Gale is growing on me. Some of her pictures make her face seem a little harsh, but that video interview of her was a much better presentation. Still she seems to not have much acting experience.

But thank god no one is arguing for Teresa Palmer, Adrianne Palicki, etc.

[buggs0268]

Teresa Palmer
Why? She is short-5'5. She looks nothing like the character. She would have to dye her hair or wear a wig. And even then she looks nothing like the character and is short. So why do you chose her?

P.S. I don't get all this "she looks like a man" stuff. Am I missing something? She doesn't look like a man.

Personally, I'd cast Rhona Mitra. She's beautiful and capable of pulling off the warrior character in my opinion.

The accent is gravy, even if she plays an American accent which ends up not quite sounding legit.

It could be that most of the actors mentioned have some kind of androgenous look to them.

[Crazymaverick]

:confused: You're crazy.

Monica Dean may have done one or two sexy, maybe even "tasteless" photoshoots in her time, but that doesn't mean the woman herself is tasteless. Most actresses have done photoshoots like that. Photoshoots mean nothing, especially since there are a ton of photos that also show Monica Dean to be tasteful and dignified. What you have to do is take away the agenda of the photographer and just look at the woman herself and--I cannot stress this enough--seeing her in live action makes all the difference. She's a thousand times more Wonder Woman-like in live action than in any photo. Go watch the episode of Lost she did and you'll be convinced.

And if you're not going to do that, then what about the photo I posted a few pages back (included below)? She looks elegent, regal, stunning. Wonder Woman incarnate.


P.S. I don't get all this "she looks like a man" stuff. Am I missing something? She doesn't look like a man.

According to Robert Sanchez, Palmer did get a role in the movie, but it isn't Wondy

Here is a tidbit, I told you that Teresa Palmer is not Wonder Woman, right? But did she she still get a role in the film? The answer would be yes.

WB has been extremely quiet, on the other hand we have been super busy with tons of Star Trek news and scoops. Should switch back to JLA very soon.

i was telling them that when i kept trying to kill that Palmer thread a while back.

so she got a role huh? she'd be as much a miscast for Talia as she is for Diana. someone mentioned around these parts that she could play Iris West, which makes sense given the involvement of both Flashes.

WW she is not, OK, but if she just dyed her hair dark, I think she should be fine. But I have never seen any of her credits though.....

[Steelsheen]

no, she' still a total miscast for Talia

besides, she doenst quite strike me as a villain type.

what we dont know is if they tested her on screen chemistry with whoever will play Batman and if sparks flew.

but... meh, my spidey sense still say she's neither WW not Talia, and that hasnt been proven wrong yet.

[Jake Cassidy]

Maybe they decided they needed another female and added Black Canary. I can always hope, right? :woot:

You know, if they were looking at Austrailian's they could have given Miranda Kerr a look.

[birdgirl]

Someone earlier asked about Minka Kelly. Anyone thought about the possibility of her for Talia? I think we all just kind of dismissed her because we were assuming she tried out for WW and no one really thought of her as a contender. But I might buy her as Talia.

[Crazymaverick]

Looks like MEW is head and shoulders above everyone else in the poll (75% as of right now).

I guess we know who's the SHH favourite for WW.

[The Shredder]

With those choices, I would certainly hope so.

I'm calling Iris West (for Teresa Palmer).



I thought her name was Iris Allen or Iris West Allen?

Anyhow....I think Palmer will be cast as her as well.

Give me a break.

Minka Kelly.

No no no no

Gale certainly looks the part. A few months of squats and you couldnt ask for a better match appearance wise.

Its better to cast a unknown who has the potential to own the role and make it there own.

If they had hired a young cast for Xmen we could have gotten 6 films, done properly without worrying about Halle and Famke being 50 by the time film 5 or 6 comes around.

you guys realize that who ever plays her has to look somewhat Mediterranean and not like a W.A.S.P.

She needs olive skin and a bit hippy and chesty...

a pasty white 2 x 4 wont do it

[conan69]

I think Gale looks perfect. I think she needs to beef up a bit - her thighs, back and arms, and itll be perfect.

Dont know of she can act, but she looks the part.


"you guys realize that who ever plays her has to look somewhat Mediterranean and not like a W.A.S.P. "

No I dont think so, with choices I hear peopel say. Jennifer Connelly, MEW. Come on.

Can anyone REALLY see MEW as Wonder Woman? She practically screams Carolinas USA .

[conan69]

The comparison with Bale is completely different.

Bale was the perfect age because Wayne trained and prepared for years to become Batman.

If this is true than I think unless shes a horrendous actress,its time to move on. Seriously. Even without seeing this girl act, Id take her over "I look like a cheerleader" Mary E W anyday.

You guys should be more worried about 6'5 21 year old they have listed for Batman. See above for why. 21 is WAY too young.

IMHO Superman and Batman shouldnt be in the film. Focus on those other characters were seeing on the big screen for the first time.

She is not a "cheerleader." Watch the interview. She's got a strong personality. I would be so excited to see her in this film (if it ever gets made!!). MEW all the way!:yay:

[conan69]

Too meek and cute.

And yes she does look like a cheerleader.

From the Carolinas.

No where near exotic and unique enough for Wonder Woman

[Lucidious]

Well, Gale is the typical "Who would you cast?" fanboy choice- an exaggerated look, a model before being an actress, inconsistent with the rest of the cast etc.

[conan69]

Ive heard all sorts of names the past 10 years theyve been talking about casting Wonder Woman.

Ive heard Jennifer Connelly, MEW, Taylor Cole, Kate Beckinsdale,Monica Bellucci(whos over 40),Sandra Bullock,Sarah Michelle Gellar,Carrie Anna Moss,Catherine Bell, Charisma Carpenter, Lucy Lawless,Gabriella Reece,Karen Cliche,Leonor Varela,Jordan Bayne and the list goes on.

Ive never heard Gale mentioned as a choice until recently so I dont get the fanboy choice comment. To me MEW, Carpenter or Gellar is more of a fanboy choice.

Inconsistant with the rest of the cast? You mean all those little known names with limited film experience?

Seems to fit right in to me.

[Lucidious]

Your choice is shallow. You don't even know if Gale can act. Oh well. She won't be cast anyway.

[conan69]

Uh huh.

What did everyone say about Brandon Routh, Rebecca Romijn, Hugh Jackman,James Marsden ...Who are they, whered they come from,can they act, Ive never heard of him, blah blah blah blah.

They must have seen something in the casting tryout to say this is the person for the role.

George Miller is a talented director. Have some faith in his decision and wait and see.

In my opinion YOUR choice is shallow. Its safe and boring.

Winstead for Wonder Woman, The Rock for Shazam, oh yea and the Rock for Conan too. Those choices suck.

Id believe Winstead as a brunette Supergirl before Wonder Woman. WWs has to have the physical features and characteristics for the character to work on the big screen. I think Winstead is pretty but she looks like the common white girl youd see in the mall. She not Wonder Woman.

[Lucidious]

Gale is overhyped. Just by her look I can see it won't be her. I don't think she should be put in the same category as Jackman, Marsden or even Romijn - who were right for their roles.

I do have faith in Miller. That's why I don't think he will pick Gale.

[conan69]

"I don't think she should be put in the same category as Jackman, Marsden or even Romijn - who were right for their roles."


Unhuh but people didnt say that when they were annouced!! I remember when everyone freaked out over Romijn playing Mystique. Everyone was complaining. Jackman hadent done anything yet, no one knew who he was.

No one knew "they were right for their roles" yet.

she'd be a great wonder girl but she doesn't have the physicality or forcefulness of a wonder woman

[buggs0268]

"I don't think she should be put in the same category as Jackman, Marsden or even Romijn - who were right for their roles."


Unhuh but people didnt say that when they were annouced!! I remember when everyone freaked out over Romijn playing Mystique. Everyone was complaining. Jackman hadent done anything yet, no one knew who he was.

No one knew "they were right for their roles" yet.
Let me guess. You are from Australia, right?

[Laderlappen]

Mary Elizabeth Winstead for Wonder Woman!!!


Why do Megan Gale have any votes at all?

Nope ;) New Yorker here.

I just think its funny. These roles get annouced. People say Van Damme for Gambit,The Rock for Conan (Ill kill myself if this happens) and Sarah Michelle Gellar for WW and when a unknown get announced everyone freaks.

Then everyone oooh and ahhs about how great the movie was despite not knowing so and so had it in them.

Then it begins all over again.

Yea shes pretty but so what. Wheres the hint of danger in MEW? Wheres a majesty and amazon in that girl? I dont see it. I see cute and bubbley take home to meet mom when I look at her. Not the presence to stand next to Superman and still be able to command awe and respect.

Even forgetting about Gale, I think Karen Cliche,Leonor Varela or even Jordan Bayne is a way better choice than Winstead.

Dude, Carter didn't have any of that stuff either at the time. She had only been Miss World USA when they chose her. She actually sucked as an actress during the show. And she is only an inch taller than MEW.

MEW was on Broadway as a kid. She has oodles of acting experience since she was a kid. And, she can play hard ass as she did in Sky High. And you can see when she is acting that she is a thinking actress and not just some vapid one. You can see it in her eyes in her performances. Also, WW was drawn as more of a Xena type starting in the 90's. Before that she was an uber hot chick who just so happened to have superpowers. But she was in shape was all.

[conan69]

You cant fake presence sorry.

Could Anna Paquin pass as WW? No. Acting ability or not.
Not anyone who "acts" can play ANY character. It doesnt work that way.

Ive said everything I have to say here I guess.

Wow. Well I went to college for both acting and film production. I have acted quite a few times, most of the people you buy in their roles are acting. Some of the best screen villians are actually the nicest people in real life and they are, hey, "acting". Some of the nicest sceen presences were actually a$$holes in real life. Hey...acting again. That why they are called actors.

And she already looks close to WW of all the rumored actress' to have tested, and the web favorite for the role for a reason.

Some of the toughest guys on screen were wimps in real life. Some of the screens wimps could kick your ass in two seconds flat. ACTING!

[The Shredder]

There just has to be some other names we havent yet been enlightened on thus far.

Atleast I hope so. :(

[Laderlappen]

^But Mary can.

Very well said. It is very easy to underestimate MEW and go for an obvious looking model type, as if being an actress doesn't matter. MEW can also grow with the role too.

[conan69]

So we can cast Adrien Brody as Conan youll be fine with that huh?

The mans a great actor.

"It is very easy to underestimate MEW and go for an obviously looking model type, as if being an actress doesn't matter."

And I never said that as I never went for the hot model choices for this role other people were pulling out of their asses llike Carpenter and others people think will look great in the suit.

My comments about her looks matched what I thougth the character required and had nothing to do with how "hot she would look in the costume". I dont think whoever gets this role needs a big chest. I dont think she needs to look like Adam Hughes drawing. I do think she needs to make look how a amazon princess should or could look since that the part shes playing

I haven seen this girl act. I cant comment on that. I said if Miller did in fact pick her,he must have had a reason and I would have a wait and see attitude towards it instead of complaining about which is what everyone does everytime one of these movies get casted.

[buggs0268]

Before Die Hard, everyone thought that Fox was nuts putting Bruce Willis in an action movie. He was a comedian from a romantic comedy. And in the 90's he couldn't get out of action movies to save his life as that is all people though he could do. ACTING!

[Lucidious]

Man, this is getting tedious.

[buggs0268]

dude she looks the part out of most the rumored tested actress without doing anything. She has a lot of acting experience and can pull it off. Hell Lucy Lawless was just a model before Xena and everyone thought they were nuts hiring her for it. Ever seen her before stuff? No way you would have thought she would have pulled it off. But she is an actress. And then after Xena she has pulled off totall non-xena like fluffy roles.

[Jake Cassidy]

So we can cast Adrien Brody as Conan youll be fine with that huh?

Conan O'Brien. Yes. :oldrazz:

[buggs0268]

Man, this is getting tedious.Dude, you are missing the point. Only in the 90's was WW drawn as an uber warrior. Before that she was a in shape super hot chick that didn't look like she could kick your ass, but she could cause she has super powers. That is who Lynda Carter played. That is what MEW would be playing. And every damn internet poll has MEW miles ahead for WW. (Look at me I am quoting internet polls now)

[conan69]

"Man, this is getting tedious."

Yea it is.

[buggs0268]

Yeah it is.

[Lucidious]

Well, at least we agree on something! I just want them to announce it already.

[Jake Cassidy]

When are these boards not tedious? :oldrazz:

[conan69]

"When are these boards not tedious?"

They always are. Pick a thread. X-Men, Superman, etc. Casting news always brings out disagreements that go on and on forever. The same arguments over and over again endlessly.

Anyway my pick is Leonor Varela. So there. Im off Gale and still think Winstead is a ****ty choice.

Which isnt all that surprsing. Considering MEW is not only the better known actress on that list, but coming off a summer blockbuster like Die Hard doesnt hurt as well as far as the polls go. Of course it would be right to expect her to be in the lead. Hell, you could replace MEW's name with someone like Megan Fox and it would more than likely be the same story. Exposure helps in casting polls. And with that list, especially in the United States, MEW being in the lead miles ahead of the other's is certainly most expected.

I agree, If she is cast I would giver her a shot but right now I can't see her being able to pull off the role. Also I think it's funny how people say she can pull off the role because she's an actor but when rumors spread that Rupert Evans, Armie Hammer,Tom Welling,Anton Yelchin,ect. are up for the male superhero roles all hell breaks loose, I mean where's that logic then.

[conan69]

Thanks cronosred, at least SOMEONE agrees with me;)

And I agree with your point, which Ive been trying to make with futility.

not because she's an actress because she's a good actress who can act circles around tom welling

[Slugster]

Megan Gale

[Giant-Man]

Mary Elizabeth Winstead

[TheComicbookKid]

Gale for the JL WW.
Winstead for the younger solo WW films would be a dream come true. Winstead(as much as I like her) doesn't have the diplomat look of WW. You need to build an origin story to explain her story to people.

[Steelsheen]

wow all this arguing over WW. a year ago i didnt think anybody would care *wipes tear from eye*


anyway, here's my two bits: i'm actually quite relieved that the shortlist looks to have Winstead and Gale on it. this means that regardless of who wins the role, we would have a pretty good WW. i'm just glad that we dont have to worry about short, blonde plastics anymore. its the homestretch folks, may the best lady win :up:

no im saying she resembles that era's wonder woman a lot

[buggs0268]

I am watching Live Free or Die Hard and I Have no doubt in my mind that MEW can play a touch as nails WW.

[SuperDaniel]

MEW is too normal looking to be WW. Shes no Wonder. Maybe Pretty Woman. Megan Gale, on the other hand...

[Majik1387]

Gale hardly looks like a woman from the neck up.

[Laderlappen]

SO Wonder Woman is supposed to look like a freak? What you mean "normal looking"? I think I prefer "normal looking" than "weird looking".

[Slugster]

Gale hardly looks like a woman from the neck up.

There is a reason she is a model and it aint because she don't look like a woman.
You need to put down that pipe! :oldrazz:

[shadowdog]

I think it's more about her proportions. She needs to be statuesque; curvy and voluptuous...so yeah, big tits basically.

[Lucidious]

Gale is a good model, I'll agree with that.

I agree with what someone said before, WW's costume should have a bit of the metallic armour look.

The JL cartoon WW isn't too extreme in terms of her look.

It will be interesting to see what they come up with, with all of the costumes.

[Venomfan]

[crazy4mary]

Gale is a good model, I'll agree with that.

Comics a lot of the time exaggerate WW too much.

I think with Gale it would be too much, like a fashion show.

Costumes create a great effect, even if you think an actor looks too "meek". Just being in a movie like this also makes the actors look larger than life. (Though of course they should have the right look.)

I agree with what someone said before, WW's costume should have a bit of the metallic armour look.

The JL cartoon WW isn't too extreme in terms of her look.

I agree with the concept that costumes make all the difference. Plus, if MEW gets the role, she has already stated that she would bulk up (hopefuly not as much as Bale!). She will always be my absolute favorite WW. Unfortunately, if WB doesn't get it's act together soon, I am sure she will have to move on to other roles. There are lots of movies already green-lit to film in the next few months. That's true for all of the other JL actors being rumored. Eventually they will have to cut their losses and move on.:csad:
